THE ESSENTIAL SKYPE PRE-INTERVIEW CHECKLIST

Got a big Skype interview coming up? Here are the most important things to do before you answer that call.

Dress for the part – Research shows that wearing a suit improves abstract thinking and overall performance – and makes you look the part!

Tidy room, tidy mind – No interviewer wants to see yesterday’s boxer shorts draped over the couch behind you – tidy things up a bit!

Have a backup Wi-Fi plan – Wi-Fi can be treacherous; ensure you have a phone that can function as a hotspot, or a Wi-Fi alternative nearby.
